Want A State Cannabis Cultivation License? Good Luck

SACRAMENTO (CBS) – The road to legal cannabis is hitting a few potholes. A new report from a cannabis business organization shows that only a fraction of the marijuana cultivators in California have state approval to operate.

What’s causing the hold-up?

California grows more cannabis than any other state, but most of it is still being grown illegally.

“They’re going to go further into the shadows. They’re going to put their heads back down,” said Hezekiah Allen about what could happen if more cultivators aren’t brought into the legal market.
